#8 - McMurry

Why It's a Great Employer

This family-owned marketing and communications firm solicits innovative ideas from employees through its "WOW" program, which encourages employees to contribute to the growth of the organization. Winning ideas are selected by a cross-functional team and have a chance to win up to $10,000. Submissions remain at the heart of some of McMurry's best initiatives including 2010's winner the "Efficionados" team, a group aimed at streamlining processes. Another perk: with the help of an art director, all McMurry staff members get to customize their own version of the McMurry logo, showcasing something personal such as a hobby, piece of art or their family.
